Whereas the Montrose Port Authority have applied for a harbour revision order under section 14 of the Harbours Act 1964(1):
And whereas there were objections made to the application which were not withdrawn, and an inquiry was held in accordance with paragraph 18 of Schedule 3 to the Harbours Act 1964;
And whereas the Scottish Ministers have considered the objections made and not withdrawn and the report of the person holding the inquiry, and are satisfied as mentioned in section 14(2)(b) of the Act;
Now, therefore, the Scottish Ministers in exercise of the powers conferred upon them by section 14 of the Act(2), and of all other powers enabling them in that behalf, hereby make the following Order:–
1964 c. 40; section 14 and Schedule 3 were amended by the Transport Act 1981(c. 56), section 18 and Schedule 6, paragraphs 2 to 4, 12 and 14; and by the Transport and Works Act 1992 (c. 42), section 63 and Schedule 3, paragraphs 1 and 10.
Section 14(7) contains a definition of “the appropriate Minister” relevant to the exercise of the powers under which this Order is made. The functions of the Secretary of State were transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 53 of the Scotland Act 1998 (c. 46).
